Titoli in Chiesa e Guida della Chiesa

«Hice daño a mucha gente (¿a 85?), a demasiados». Con apenas dieciocho años, el sacerdote español Alfonso Pedrajas, también llamado padre Pica, se hizo misionero jesuita para ayudar a los más pobres en Bolivia, país en el que trabajó como profesor hasta su muerte en 2009. No obstante, detrás de una imagen de religioso misericordioso se escondía un depredador que agredió sexualmente a los pequeños a los que había jurado proteger, en especial a los que acogió en el internado Juan XXIII en Cochabamba.

I decenni più neri dell'Europa: tra gli anni Trenta e l'inizio della guerra fredda. Un tempo in cui tutto cambia e anche la Chiesa deve confrontarsi con i nuovi poteri via via emergenti: prima i totalitarismi europei, poi le due superpotenze del mondo bipolare. In questo quadro, risulta centrale la questione del rapporto tra mondo cattolico ed ebraismo, non solo negli anni della persecuzione e dello sterminio ma anche dopo, con un "ritorno a casa" dei sopravvissuti segnato da ostilità e da pogrom, e con la partita aperta della questione mediorientale.

Il proverbio "l'abito non fa il monaco" avrebbe potuto benissimo essere "l'abito non fa il frate", spesso infatti queste figure vengono confuse ma le origini, le scelte di vita e soprattutto gli abiti sono differenti e lo sono per vari motivi, non ultimo la volontà di distinguersi, gli uni dagli altri.

L'autore, filosofo e storico anglo-americano ha esaminato la relazione tra religione e scienza, respingendo le idee di armonia e presentando la storia della scienza come "non una semplice registrazione di scoperte isolate; è una narrazione del conflitto di due potenze in competizione, la forza espansiva dell'intelletto umano da una parte, dall'altra la comprensione derivante dalla fede tradizionale e dagli interessi umani".

The "Lutheran" in the title doesn't mean The Lutheran Toolkit is just for Lutherans. It's about a Lutheran witness for the whole church and for all sinners with ears to hear. It's a book about the big theological ideas the evangelical reformers of the 16th century used as a lens for understanding God's work in Christ. Starting with Philiip Melanchthon's 1530 Augsburg Confession, which was drafted to defend the preaching and teaching of Luther and his colleagues, Ken Sundet Jones sees its primary themes as a set of tools that God uses to build faith in us.
